The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage romance Capítulo 77

"I owe you an apology for this," Vicky told Frank solemnly. "I hope you won't mind it. And whatever happens in a year, I'll transfer all my shares of Riverton Pharma to you."

Frank was perplexed, though he noticed the bemusement and helplessness in Vicky's eyes.

"You don't seem convinced I could surpass the Lionhearts," he said.

Vicky sighed, a look of wariness showing in her gaze. "You won't succeed even for a decade, let alone a year. They're far scarier than you'd ever imagine."

Frank smiled in silence in return.

After all, he was far scarier than she would ever imagine, too.

He got up, bidding her goodbye and started to head back to the hotel, though he sneezed violently twice just as he stepped outside the doorway.

"Who the hell was badmouthing me?" he growled.

Meanwhile, Sean was lying quietly in a room within Riverton Hospital, his body covered in bandages.

He had only regained consciousness after being thoroughly beaten up. He only regained consciousness during the wee hours of the morning, feeling agony all over!

"I swear I'll kill you, Frank Lawrence, even if it's the last thing I do…" he cursed, as he had done for the whole morning.

He would have ordered a hit on Frank, but that was going to be exceedingly difficult. After all, Frank was the one who had killed West City's former kingpin Leo Grayson.

And Leo's successor, Scarface, absolutely revered Frank after taking over!

Still, while he was racking his brains on what he should do, someone kicked open the door to his room.

As Sean looked on, a group of black-clad men filed inside, and he snapped, "Who the fuck are you people?"

None of them answered—one even strode up and slapped him across the face!

While Sean was left stunned by the sudden slap, the others had already hoisted him and carried him out of the room!
